Above and below are pictures taken – by Rickard “Frisco” Andersson – of Peter Forsberg over the weekend in Sweden, practicing with his old Swedish team, Modo, along with other Swede NHLers like the Sedin brothers (one of whom is in the picture, and don’t ask me which one it is, because I have no clue, they’re identical twins!)

This was just a casual skate-around, but Foppa is slated to play in a charity game with a Swedish team named the Icebreakers this week. And, it makes me wonder how bad his foot problems are at the moment, if he’s doing this stuff.

*Update: Forsberg scored a hat trick in the game, which was played Tuesday night. Don’t forget, Sweden is nine hours ahead of Denver time.

As we noted in a blog and online story last month, Foppa said he probably won’t think about even playing in the NHL again until at least Christmas. But, might something happen sooner?
